Utterly defensible take on this phenomenon, pB, but I think Desu's body type makes him something of an exception. He does a great job demonstrating that the lack of a model's body is no excuse to dress like a slob.

"Of course, there is really only one way of being perfectly dressed - that is, to be grossly rich. You may have exquisite discrimination and the elegance of a gigolo, but you can never rival the millionaire if he has even the faintest inclination towards smartness".
